Memorial Hospital and Manor is proud to officially announce the opening of our new Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Center.

We were honored to celebrate this milestone with a ribbon cutting hosted by the Bainbridge-Decatur County Chamber of Commerce. The strong turnout and support from our community leaders, partners, and residents made the event a tremendous success. We are deeply grateful to everyone who joined us to mark this important step forward for local healthcare.

This new center represents more than the addition of a service line — it represents our continued commitment to expanding access to high-quality, specialized care right here at home. For patients recovering from cardiac events, living with heart disease, or managing chronic pulmonary conditions, rehabilitation is a critical part of healing and long-term wellness. Having these services available locally means patients and their families no longer have to travel out of town for the comprehensive care they need.

Receiving care close to home reduces travel burdens, allows loved ones to remain nearby for support, and helps patients stay connected to their community during recovery. We are proud to offer a program designed to improve strength, restore confidence, and enhance overall quality of life — all under the guidance of our dedicated and highly trained clinical team.

Thank you to our community for your continued trust and support. Together, we are building a healthier future for Bainbridge and the surrounding region.

We are pleased to share some exciting news with our community!

Memorial Hospital and Manor is proud to welcome a new Chick-fil-A mini location inside the hospital, now serving our staff, patients, and visitors.

The Chick-fil-A mini location is open:
Breakfast: 7:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.
Lunch: 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.

By enhancing the overall experience for our patients, families, and team members, we continue our commitment to providing a welcoming and supportive environment—where compassionate care is complemented by thoughtful amenities.

Please join us in congratulating Victoria Chaney on being named Memorial Hospital and Manor’s 4th Quarter 2025 Sunshine Award winner!

The Sunshine Award recognizes healthcare team members who brighten the days of their patients, families, and fellow staff at Memorial Hospital and Manor. Honorees are team members who assist nursing with patient care and are selected based on their demonstration of our hospital values: Accountability, Teamwork, Integrity, Excellence, Compassion, Innovation, and Trust. Sunshine Award recipients personify the remarkable patient experience at MHM and consistently demonstrate excellence through extraordinary, compassionate care.

Victoria, who serves in our Emergency Department, was nominated by a co-worker who shared the following:

“Let me first start off by saying Victoria Chaney is hands down, bar-none one of the best employees at Memorial Hospital and Manor — no question. I first had the privilege of meeting Victoria when she was in high school and participated in the hospital apprenticeship program her senior year. I knew from the moment I met her that she was going to do some amazing things.

Fast forward a year and she is working as a tech full time in the Emergency Department, while taking her nursing school pre-reqs. For the last two years I have watched this young lady work harder than anyone I have ever seen. For the past two years I have had the absolute pleasure of working alongside her — not only calling her a co-worker, but a friend as well.

Victoria is the person that lifts everyone’s spirits when they are having a bad day — whether it be with a joke, a kind word, a smile, or just being there not only for staff to talk to but patients as well. She takes as much pride in her work, if not more, as we floor nurses do and never hesitates to jump in and lend a hand when you need it. Sometimes before you can even ask her to do something she already has it done and has started working on the next task. We in the ED would be absolutely lost without her. I am so proud to have the privilege of calling her a co-worker, and I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this award than she is.”

Victoria, thank you for the positivity, dedication, and compassion you bring to our Emergency Department each and every day. You truly brighten our hospital and embody what the Sunshine Award represents.

Supporting Advanced Women’s Healthcare in Our Community

Memorial Hospital and Manor is honored to recognize The Edward C. Fogg, III and Lisbeth A. Fogg Charitable Trust for their generous support of women’s healthcare through the recent acquisition of a Samsung V6 ultrasound system at the Magnolia Women’s Center.

Thanks to the continued commitment of the Fogg Charitable Trust, Memorial Hospital and Manor was able to invest in advanced imaging technology that directly enhances patient care. The Samsung V6 ultrasound system provides clearer, more detailed images, faster exam times, and improved diagnostic accuracy—benefits that translate into earlier detection, better clinical decision-making, and a more comfortable experience for patients.

This state-of-the-art equipment supports a wide range of women’s health services, including obstetric and gynecologic imaging, and allows providers to deliver high-quality care close to home. For patients and families in Decatur County and surrounding communities, this means access to modern technology without the burden of traveling outside the area.

“Our mission is to serve our community with compassion and excellence, and we simply could not do that without partners like the Fogg Charitable Trust,” said LaDon Toole, CEO of Memorial Hospital and Manor. “Their generosity reflects a deep commitment to the health and well-being of our neighbors. Because of their continued support, we are able to invest in advanced tools that strengthen healthcare in our community today and for years to come.”

Clinical staff at the Magnolia Women’s Center are already seeing the positive impact of the new equipment.
“We are incredibly grateful for our new ultrasound machine,” said Courtney Roland, Ultrasound Technologist. “This upgrade will allow us to provide more accurate imaging and even better care for our patients.”

Memorial Hospital and Manor extends its sincere gratitude to The Edward C. Fogg, III and Lisbeth A. Fogg Charitable Trust for their continued investment in local healthcare. Their generosity helps ensure that patients receive high-quality, reliable care in a setting that feels close to home.

Memorial Hospital and Manor remains committed to investing in innovative technology and services that enhance patient care, improve outcomes, and support the health and well-being of the community it serves.
